Should be a cinch for the Greens. After all, they’ve done so much for residents and businesses across the city. They’ve always listened, been very frugal with taxpayer money and kept all essential services running with a high degree of success!
Another Green Win!
Dear God I hope you are being sarcastic.
Vote for whoever will not bring in an LTN to your area. It’ll be coming soon otherwise.
VOTE CONSERVATIVE !! It’s the only way to keep out the loony left…
Labour might have a chance with this…if it wasn’t for the fact that the local party is still littered with Momentum loons . Do we have clarification as to whether the Labour candidate is ‘normal’ Labour or a deranged left wing fruitcake?

Make your own mind up.
Vote Labour – get Green. No thanks

She previously led a campaign to stop the deportation of convicted rapists, murderers and attempted murderers.
Bella’s “track record” of “integrity” includes saying terror attacks are a “price we should be willing to pay”
So I won’t be voting for Green or Labour.
